VCF-kit: assorted utilities for the variant call format.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England) - 15 May 2017

Cook Daniel E, Andersen Erik C

Abstract excerpt

SUMMARY: The variant call format (VCF) is a popular standard for storing genetic variation data. As a result, a large collection of tools has been developed that perform diverse analyses using VCF files. However, some tasks common to statistical and population geneticists have not been created yet. To streamline these types of analyses, we created novel tools that analyze or annotate VCF files and organized these...
